The American Old West usually conjures up images of lean and hungry men fighting for survival. Yet the women of the West faced equally difficult challenges. One such heroic woman is Elizabeth McFarland, known to her adopted Native American tribe as ... Mythmaker.

In the first book, Elizabeth, daughter of an army colonel stationed at Fort Larned, Kansas, is captured by the Kiowa. Her brother, Noble, and his half-Comanche best friend, Johnny Two Hats, set out to rescue her. None of their lives will ever be the same. Will Elizabeth turn her back on her family forever, or will she relinquish a role in the tribe that transcends anything that she could hope to be in the white man's world?

Although the Tracy Dunham MYTHMAKER SERIES books are traditionally classified under our Western category, we did want to mention this series in our Romance category as well since these books compromise a very moving and touching love story and saga of a woman named Elizabeth McFarland sho survives capture by the Kowa tribe and becomes a healer known to her clan as Mythmaker, and the half-Comanche man known as Johnny Two Hats who becomes her husband.

A graduate of Hollins College and the T. C. Williams School of Law, Tracy Dunham has been writing since the third grade. She lives in Richmond, Virginia, with her husband and two daughters, who are avid readers and writers themselves. She enjoys researching American history, and has lived west of the Mississippi before becoming an Easterner.

The Trail to Medicine Lodge is the first book in the series.
